The Changes and Pursuit of Ideals

Jun 21,2024 | SONSONTRADE

During everyone's growth process, there are always some experiences and insights that shape our visions and ideals for the future. During my junior high and high school years, whenever I saw classmates whose parents were office workers happily traveling as a family during holidays, I was filled with envy.

My family made a living by running a store that wholesaled office supplies. My parents were busy with business almost every day throughout the year, except for the few days of the Chinese Traditional New Year Festival. Traveling was a rare luxury for our family. Either my father or my mother would take us out, and the chances for a complete family outing were very few. Seeing my parents working so hard from dawn to dusk for the business, I felt the pain in my heart.

At that time, I secretly made up my mind that in the future, I would never do business like my parents but become an office worker. Because in my naive mind, office workers could accompany their children to play heartily during holidays.

However, as I grew older and gained more experience, I gradually discovered that the life of an office worker was not as wonderful as I had imagined. When leaving for work early in the morning, the children were still asleep; when returning home from overtime work at night, the children had already fallen asleep. Throughout the day, there was hardly any time to be with the children.

After careful consideration, I finally understood that instead of being an ordinary office worker, it would be better to become the boss of office workers and start my own company. In this way, the company could rest during holidays instead of being open for business all year round. Then, I could take my children out for fun and enjoy family happiness. I could even bring my children to my own company, so that companionship would no longer be lacking due to busyness.

From the initial longing for the life of an office worker to the later determination to start my own company, along this journey, my ideal has been constantly adjusting and clarifying. And all of this stems from my deep love for my family and children, as well as my unremitting pursuit of a better life. I firmly believe that as long as I move forward towards this goal resolutely, one day, my ideal will become a reality, and I will have a successful career and a happy family life.

Back to my university days, especially in my sophomore year, a seemingly accidental opportunity quietly changed the trajectory of my future life and eventually made me position my ideal as running an international trade company.

At that time, in order to improve my English, I made friends widely on the Englishbaby website. During this process, I met a friend who worked in the Maldives. He proposed a very attractive cooperation intention to me, that is, he would remit money to me and entrust me to purchase Lure in China because such products were extremely popular there.

This was my first time venturing into the fields of international collection and international express delivery. Every link from purchasing at the wholesale market was full of unknowns and challenges. However, it was precisely in this process that I was like a sponge, absorbing precious knowledge to my heart's content. Although there were many twists and turns during the period, the products were finally sent out successfully.

It was also from then on that I developed a strong and lasting interest in international trade. In the years that followed, this interest not only did not diminish with the passage of time but became even more firm through the tempering of years. From my sophomore year until now, more than ten years have passed in a hurry, and I have always been firmly on the road of international trade.

During this long journey, not only have I been striving hard for my ideal but also harvested another happiness in life - formed my own family and became the mother of two boys. The responsibility and warmth of the family have further inspired me to forge ahead bravely on this road of international trade and keep exploring and forging ahead.

Looking back, from the initial ignorant attempts to the current persistent perseverance, international trade is not only a career but also an indispensable and important part of my life. I deeply understand that the road ahead may still be full of challenges, but I will continue to write my own chapter of international trade with a firm belief and unremitting efforts.
